The Ministry of Interior appointed trustees to the municipalities of Batman, Mardin, and Halfeti after Esenyurt. While the trustee decisions continue to be a hot topic in the public agenda, politicians have also made consecutive moves.

Ekrem İmamoğlu, the Mayor of Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality (IMM), requested an appointment from the leaders of political parties outside the AK Party to discuss various issues on the agenda, primarily the trustee decisions.

The response of MHP Chairman Devlet Bahçeli to İmamoğlu's request for a meeting was eagerly awaited. Bahçeli stated that he rejected İmamoğlu's request for an appointment after his party's group meeting and said, "I do not approve of İmamoğlu's politics. They may want to involve the MHP in this exploitation. Therefore, I am being cautious," he expressed.

İMAMOĞLU'S QUICK RESPONSE TO BAHÇELİ

Journalists asked Ekrem İmamoğlu about Bahçeli's response to the appointment request. İmamoğlu said:

"Frankly, we do not even let the word exploitation pass through our souls or our close circles. We know how to be polite. We also know how to enter and exit the place we requested an appointment from. No one should ever be concerned about this; they cannot be. This is his personal opinion; it does not stick to us or affect us in any way."
